Alas, I have the original BIOS installed. I was checking and it does
appear there are BIOS updates available. I always hate the idea of
flashing a ROM given the implications of something going wrong. However,
I was just checking /var/log/dmesg and am seeing things like:
mtrr: v2.0 (20020519)
mtrr: your CPUs had inconsistent fixed MTRR settings
mtrr: probably your BIOS does not setup all CPUs.
mtrr: corrected configuration.
BIOS failed to enable PCI standards compliance, fixing this error.
so perhaps I have a root cause to address.
I may just try the beta kernel anyhow ... if it doesn't work I will be
able to capture the actual mptscsih error message. :(
